Summary of Request:
Chabot-Las Positas Community College District provides trainings to local child welfare providers through an Agreement with Health and Human Services Agency, Family and Children’s Services (FCS). These trainings specifically benefit providers who serve Federal Title IV-E eligible children (who are in, or at significant risk of entering, the child welfare system) and their families. The State provides funding for the Agreement with matching amounts from Chabot and Title IV-E Federal child welfare training funds.
Trainings offered through the Agreement with Chabot are collaborative in nature. Chabot works directly with FCS and other local community-based organizations, such as FIRST 5 Mendocino, Mendocino County Youth Project, and Redwood Community Services, to offer trainings that support building comprehensive and consistent skills throughout the community. These skills support families and caregivers and increase the safety, permanency, and wellbeing of Mendocino County’s foster children and youth.
Because of their collaborative nature, trainings are far-reaching and engage numerous participants countywide. Participation numbers from Fiscal Year 2017-18 serve as illustration of this point - in Fiscal Year 2017-18, Chabot provided a total of 1,704 hours of training and development for 1,873 participants. (Fiscal Year 2018-19 numbers are not yet available, but Chabot will submit them in a year-end review, due September 2019.)
FCS has attached a staff report to further illustrate the comprehensive nature of the skills and resources available to community members through trainings provided by Chabot and to support the request to continue the Agreement with Chabot in Fiscal Year 2019-20.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Return to staff for alternative handling.
